Bring Your Contractor - Opportunity Awaits! This stately 4-level Graystone 2-4 unit building is in the Grand Crossing neighborhood. This building offers timeless curb appeal and strong bones, with many major updates already completed. Recent upgrades include a newer roof, updated heating system, most electrical systems, and newer triple-pane windows, providing a solid foundation for your vision. The interior is a blank canvas, awaiting your finishing touches. Kitchens and bathrooms need completion, offering the perfect opportunity to customize or configure the space to your needs. Whether you're an investor, developer, or owner-occupant, this is a chance to create something truly special. The property includes alley access with one off-street parking space. Note: the lot shape is irregular at the rear of the building. No garage is present. You can walk to the Green Line and buses 3 and 29. You can also walk to the new Mariano's on MLK Dr. Sold As-Is - the seller is motivated, so bring your ideas and your contractor to explore the full potential of this classic Graystone.
